EnglishIn the present study, 30 right-handed participants randomly performed one of three motor neurorehabilitation paradigms: action observation (AO), motor imagery (MI) and combined action observation and motor imagery (AO+MI) of the right arm and hand movement. Resting state electroencephalography (EEG) was acquired for 5 min before and immediately after the motor paradigms session. EEG was recorded from 10 sites over sensorimotor areas, and the average power was calculated for left (FC3, C3, C1, C5, CP3) and right (FC4, C4, C2, C6, CP4) regions in the spectral bands: delta, theta, alpha, mu, low and high beta. Our main finding demonstrates that delta, theta and mu activity decreased significantly on the contralateral regions during MI, while low beta increased significantly. Except for the mu band, the same changes were observed on the ipsilateral side, where delta and theta decreased significantly, while low beta became significantly higher. No relevant effects were observed for AO or combined AO and MI. These findings demonstrate a rapid effect of MI on cortical modulation in sensorimotor areas which is revealed by changes in resting state oscillatory activity and suggest an interesting interplay between MI and AO. The presented findings may be relevant for choosing a proper protocol for clinical motor neurorehabilitation approaches.

| Abstract: | In the present study, 30 right-handed participants randomly performed one of three motor neurorehabilitation paradigms: action observation (AO), motor imagery (MI) and combined action observation and motor imagery (AO+MI) of the right arm and hand movement. Resting state electroencephalography (EEG) was acquired for 5 min before and immediately after the motor paradigms session. EEG was recorded from 10 sites over sensorimotor areas, and the average power was calculated for left (FC3, C3, C1, C5, CP3) and right (FC4, C4, C2, C6, CP4) regions in the spectral bands: delta, theta, alpha, mu, low and high beta. Our main finding demonstrates that delta, theta and mu activity decreased significantly on the contralateral regions during MI, while low beta increased significantly. Except for the mu band, the same changes were observed on the ipsilateral side, where delta and theta decreased significantly, while low beta became significantly higher. No relevant effects were observed for AO or combined AO and MI. These findings demonstrate a rapid effect of MI on cortical modulation in sensorimotor areas which is revealed by changes in resting state oscillatory activity and suggest an interesting interplay between MI and AO. The presented findings may be relevant for choosing a proper protocol for clinical motor neurorehabilitation approaches. |
